I think I need to get back into church and start focusing less on myself and more how I can better the world, and other's lives. Like yesterday I repaid $180 of a $480 personal loan from my mom's boyfriend, I signed up for insurance (auto), and today I put $50 toward Thanksgiving groceries, easing the burden on my mom and her guy slightly.

I may have a job starting next Monday. I'll know for sure tomorrow, which is good because I need a little time to grieve my 3rd divorce. Today the papers were signed by us both. Tomorrow may be a big day for me, it may be really over. My car is running again, well I might add. I now have a little time to gather some down payment money, build up my credit a bit. Trade it in and get something I really like.
I can very much relate to this. When we are feeling anxious and helpless, prayer is a very helpful thing to turn to. I'm so glad you have found it.
